Hip Kiddo Swap-a-rama

Hey mamas! My kids are Callum 6, Devon 4, and Flora 2 and I'm just going to enter us as one kid because anything they receive they will all play with, guarenteed. I hope this is okay with everyone... The kids love costumes (pirates, vampires, animals, magicians, royalty, mosnsters, etc..), the color orange, soft toys, post cards, games, jewelry, spiderman, and purses.

Meg -- that works if it works for you!

Rile, 4, is a superduper Thomas the Tank Engine fanatic -- if you were to find some Thomas fabric and create something from that he would be gaga. He is also a Super Duper CARS nut. His toddler bed IS McQueen. So CARS themed for his room would ROCK.

He loves all colours, all animals, to read, he is an avid speller right now.

Maggie Pearl: 20 mos. Current favorites... Little Mermaid, Elmo, shoes, purses, puzzles, picture books.

Should I enter Joseph too? I'll create a new name for him and enter twice if we get a bunch of people and the mood strikes me. Thats means I'll make two crafts right?

yeah..you'd make 2 and get 2 different packages

Ummm... I have a seven and a half month old boob-juice drinkin' pea-hatin' teeth-cuttin' blond-haired sorta-crawlin' little cutie pie named Logan. Anything he can chew on and I can wash would be fantastic! Thats about all I can think of right now... Hmm... what else... nope, thats all I got ladies. :)

Sassyfrassy -- love your description of Logan!

O.k. I'm in!!! Sounds like fun. I'll do the kids separately so they both get something in the mail and aren't squabbling over just one thing. And i want to make 2 things anyway!

Violet first-She just turned 4 and is a freak about any type of animal(horses being her fav), puppets, music, dress ups. She is very easy to please and would love to get anything in the mail.:)

Heres my second name for the boy. My sons name is Luck and he is 2.5. He loves trains, puppets, anything to throw, four leaf clovers, anything really that a 2 year old boy would like. As with Violet, he's very easy to please and he'll probably like the packaging more than the actual gift itself!

Joseph William: Going on 2 weeks Current favorites... boob juice, pooping, sleeping, grunting.

Can you guess whose brother I am??

LoL! Well I only have one, whew! His name is Zachary, he is 3.5 and he loves to work! He is a mild cars fan, he loves tools and construction trucks, but he is a huge john deere fan, he obsesses about them, we visit the dealer on a regular basis, did I mention he is a john deere fan?? I think he would be happy getting just about anything.

Boots, my son, is two. He likes animals, robots, trucks, poodles, books and things that are blue, orange, green . or sometimes red.
He is small for a two yearold but has a kind of big head. We live near seattle in the best place ever (small town, rural, liberal, fun) so it doesn't get too cold or hot here, just wet.

Oogie aka Jesse is 3. 4 in april. He likes trains space ships pirates books. Fav color is yellow at this moment. We live in northern MN always cold here but we love our summer. He is an outdoor kinda kid. Mostly he just like to get something for him in the mail.

WOW! so excited this morning to see so many mamas & their kiddos signed up!

I am looking forward to this soooo much! I wish i could get y'all as swap buddies!

I have two. Izzy is nearly three, a few days after this swap ends. She was into trains a couple of weeks ago, but not this week, may change though. She, this week, is into pink princessy dress up pretend stuff. She loves to rock out though, we made her a cardboard guitar for this purpose. She is a punk at heart though, punk princess perhaps. Shhe loves books. She loves pretending to cook and playdoh.

Maybe, should I sign my boy up? He is going on three months so doesn't have so many likes, but I don' mind making two crafts and love handmade stuff.

Also about Izzy, she loves dolls and playing "mommy" and big sister.

quick question - how do you enter more than one kiddo? do i sign them both up somehow? i am not technically inclined, so one of you will have to hold my hand...:) dean - 6.5 yrs, speaks french, likes godzilla (and friends), animal planet (especially the croc hunter - miss him :( ) , reads tons of books, his favorite colors are blue and green (closet pink fan) is creative beyond his years and loves art mecah - 8.5 mos, breastfed, rebelling against food, likes to look at herself, loves dean, teething, puts everything in her mouth, likes the crinkle sound, has enough hair to wear a lil clippy, and i am making her the girliest thing in the world

Ezra son to katiegrrrl. he is 3 months old, almost, will be a couple of days after the swap. He was born on the 5th, izzy the 9th. Anyway, he hasn't got a lot of likes right now other that people making silly faces at him and singing to him and mama juice. well he likes putting things in his mouth, both my kids are oral. So baby things that he can wear or that make a noise or can be mouthed would be great. he doesn't have booties any more out grew the other ones. he has kind of big feet. He wears 3-6 mo stuff, mostly because he is really long. Currently he is right around 13 lb and 24 inches, but I feel another growth spurt is around the cornor. Wow I said more about the non-mover than the one who never stops.

Maria -- you would need to create a 2nd account on here for the 2nd kiddo

as a matter of fact, Betty (my 16 yr old) is about to sign up so she can make a craft for one of your kids!!!

well this is the account i set up for Betty & had her fill in her profile

so whoever gets her will be crafting for a 16 yr old & whoever's child Betty gets she will be crafting for

Oh I can't resist making something for a kid, and my kid loves to get packages. She is Maia, 2 yrs old (2.5 in April). As far as characters go, she loves; Care Bears (she carries a bag of them wherever she goes, sleeps with them, knows all their names) and, recently, McQueen from Cars. Toys, she loves dinosaurs (especially stegasaurus, triceratops, and tyrannosaurus), jungle/zoo animals, and reading all kinds of books. (Also partial to firetruck & train imagery.) She's petite and has red hair.

arggg...when are we gonna swap?? I am dying to start my project!

Shoot! Joseph got Maggie!!! I didn't even think about that happening! Lucky Violet did your kids get eachother??

Hahahaha! No, they didn't! Do you wanna do an extra swap with me? I'll do Maggie since J got her and you can do whichever one of mine you want. Make sense?

sorry, ladies. i am super special and failed to read on! so, i never signed up for both of the kiddos. we're just signed up as one!! so, to whomever received the burley's - we're all together!!

this is going to be so fun! my dd is Isabelle and she is 2.5 years old. she loves all animals, and really likes small ones that she can put in her dollhouse, etc. she is super imaginative and creative. loves to draw, color, and paint, stamp, etc. she loves all colors. characters she likes are: elmo, barney, clifford, kipper, care bears, teletubbies, blue from blue's clues. she likes to dress up. she likes puppets. she has long, straight, blond hair. she's thin and sorta tall. um, that's all i can think of for now.

hope everyone is at work on their crafts

my daughter and i are -- slowly but surely!

well, i figured out what i am going to do.... for one of them!!! still stumped on the other. starting first craft at lunch time. :)

okie mamas -- don't forget to rate when you get your swap

So this is weird my packages were returned to me a week after I sent them. This has never happened to me and mail. I am sorry to my partners, I am also E-Zboi. I will get them back out in the mail ASAP.

wow - snail mail must be crawling - I haven't seen that one of my packages has arrived and we have yet to be graced with the ones sent to out house ;(

& they messed up katie's

???

how rude!

hope everything arrives where they should soon

So I got E-zboi's it is amazing!! A beautiful dream catcher made of seed beads. I will take a pictture soon. I rated already a 5 and big old heart!!

Umm I am really sorry but things got real hectic around here and money was tight. So my return packages have sat, I am going to the post office tomorrow morning with a package from katiegrrrl and from E-zboi.

Special Mail Day here!

Both Rile & Big Sissy received packages... Rile opened his and he has decided it is a playmat! and he put his Lightening McQueen & Doc in the pockets. I doubt he'll let me hang it anytime soon.

When Betty gets home she'll open hers. I can barely wait!

Katiegrrrrl! Violets little pink monster pillow arrived today and she LOVES it! THank you so much!:)

I haven't received my swap yet. I sent a message to who was suposed to send it. I will wait till Monday before leaving a rating of not sent/received.
